The Most Underrated Food For Meal Prepping
Today is rotisserie chicken time. I think these rotisserie chickens are a heavily underrated and underused tool for meal prepping. This is how I made 8 meals and a delicious chicken stock from it.

A little stock tip. You can let it reduce a bit to concentrate the flavor and put it into icecube molds, then when frozen put it into a ziplock bag in the freezer. Keep it a long time, and take as many cubes as you think you need.

you're genius my man/dudette.
If you don't have cornstarch, you can add regular flour at the same time as the paprika and powders, before deglazing the pan. The flour gets toasted and brown and it smells divine!

Who the hell throws away the skin? That’s literally the tastiest part of a fried chicken. Even using it in a soup is sacrilege.

chicken skin makes the stock taste incredible I'm sorry - also baking them in the oven makes them crisp up incredibly for a perfect soup topping
the skin is the best part to eat tho, would never through that in a stock hahaha ps, I find that cooking a stock for 4 to 5 hours is the optimal time to release all the flavor from the bones.

Worst part to eat health wise though so much calories in those fucker and not getting you full even after you eat 1 chicken worth of skins

Bro I just eat the whole chicken in one sitting like an animal. I rarely have the patience to cut it up
Not eating the skin is a crime
An even more underrated food you can use is organ meat. Admittedly, some people find it disgusting and it requires a bit of knowledge to prepare, but it's very cheap and delicious if prepared correctly. It also offers a bunch of unique flavors to experiment with in various dishes and is quite healthy. I highly recommend trying it.
Hey Kwook, i am Shourya Roy ,12 years old male and live in Maharashtra, India, i am in 7'th grade but have a fascination for ethnic food and i am in love with your videos(i wish my mother-Sanjana, could make some different ethnic food but she apparently can't).Can you please please please make Aalo luchi dum(आलु लूची दम) or rice with a spicy gravy of potato and cauliflower (आलू गोबी की सब्जी). Both of them are easily 10/10, you lil fan's request. I wish i could mee you some day, i want to be a chef and you are my role model cuz you cook delicious food with ease in a simple way that i am able to understand and narrate it to my Mom..

It's only good when it's crispy. Once it gets limp you toss that shit out.
Oh I love breaking a chicken down and making tons of stuff out of it. Every time I get a rotisserie I’ll make a stock after butchering it. And then I’ll just have this bag of meat in the fridge to make whatever I feel like out of during the week. Best chicken hack I’ve ever learned
Fall is back and with it this is much needed and appreciated
If you don't like beetroot a good substitute for the chicken salad is red cabbage
Your content always makes me smile kwoowk! The recipes always are nice too!
The timing of this is very interesting to me. Babish just posted a rottiserie chicken video too - I think a day, maybe 2, before this one. I like that you call out your inspiration - I wonder if he got the idea from the same place. oh and by the way Bought your cookbook - first cookbook I've bought in years. I don't think I need it, to be honest - I already cook a lot and feel fairly good at it. But I absolutely love your approach to cooking and how eager you are to teach us all your tips and tricks, and I really really wanted to support you. Keep up the good work! You're awesome, Kevin
The skin is the best part. how have you not snacked it? 🤣
Love your videos, am definitely going to try this soon!
Quick and to the point. Great video
Polenta with chicken (usually stewed/slow cooked) is a very popular and traditional dish in Brazil, especially in the South. :)

Top tip! Add turmeric powder to your chicken stocks. It adds that extra deep golden color to the oil and broth that you expect. It's not cheating, everyone does it. Making food look good and the way you expect it to look literally makes it taste better. In something as delicate as chicken soup, the mild flavor of turmeric usually comes through. It's also good for your heart and brain!

Or just a pinch of curry powder. If it is only a small amount, it is not enough to taste really curry, but it is a nice spice undertone.
I love your videos- they are useful and wholesome :)
Boi that onion chop transition was freakin flawless🔥
You are such an inspiration to all home cooks. Your casual addition of spices is so freeing to dedicated recipe-cooks
This video was very funny, thank you for making me laugh 😅 normally i wouldnt click on a video with a headless chicken, but im glad i did.
My tip for straining stock is to pull out as many chunks as you can with tongs before pouring anything. That way you can panic and pour quickly if you need to 😅
thanks for the tips!
Love your videos!! Its fun.
i love you man keep up the good work you make my day better
You know its gonna be a good day when kwoowk uploads. Groeten uit Drenthe!
Your voice is so pleasant and calming. I usually watch when I’m going to sleep and it knocks me out instantly. Having auto play on is the best Of course I also watch your videos when I’m actually awake and fully enjoy them lol I love the nonspecific directions “cook till it’s cooked” “boil for uhhh idk. Until it looks right?”. Best way in my opinion
Your videos are always the best 😊
Love these student friendly videos
This chef is hysterical. I just purchased his cookbook.
❤great ,just love it !
Oi! Since you seem rather fond of stew I'd like to recommend the german "Bauerntopf" or "Farmer's Pot" :)
Kne if the best cooking videos I've ever seen
The editing is so good
5:21 my brain liked that alot
My family uses the white meat to make chicken tostadas. Shredded chicken with some mayonnaise and corn chilled in the fridge for about an hour. Put it on a tostada with some hot sauce and it's heaven.
Nice to see you💞 ✌🥰
❤❤ super thanks for your recepices 🙏🤤🙏🤤🙏🤤🙏🤤🙏🤤
go to supermarket. go get a whole, uncooked chicken, get a decent knife and heavy duty scissors, seperate the chicken into its components: there you saved alot of money, and your meal options just expanded to include juicy, freshly cooked chicken instead of old, dry rotisserie.
I have a bay tree in my garden and the flavour is so strong i legit have to take the bay leaf out after 10 minutes or it's like eating tree. Shop bought could never
Your videos always make My day 😊😊😊❤❤❤
that trick with the back of the fork for the corn starch slurry was slick af
Brilliant! 👍
Would love if you continued this idea with pescatarian / vegetarian recipes! :)
You can also make soto from all that :)
Saw the title of this vid and was like FOR REAL. Started doing this ages ago and have never gone back.
you can definitely get away with the cheapest bottle of red wine you can find. i do that for what is an insanely huge batch cook of a spaghetti style sauce (it misses things like parmesan and all that so that i can use it for other stuff after freezing into portions ans add the right flavours when i defrost and cook it) and i can easily use half the bottle if i’m a little generous with it and it’s as good as a nicer red wine

i died when you took off the skin
the chicken skin tastes good tho
nice
I eat the skin its so good
After you mede that I thought abaout this idea but with a raw chickien every week i make my menú of that chickien but the idea was extract about your videos and use every thing you have in your firdge and cooking basics for students
rotisserie chicken is the hero for quick meal prep. I use mine for making curry. After I separate the meat, I make a stock with the bones and use that for the curry. I add chicken at the end.
Crispy chicken skins for crunch next time brother
What an adorable little Ewok!
